ReflectionsKinmor Music, Scotland
A book & DVD by Scottish harper & glass artist Alison Kinnaird. Those of you who are fans of her playing on early Gaelic harp, as heard on her CD The Silver String, will be interested to get this new book, which is the other way around: focussing on her glass artwork, with a little harp music on the included DVD. The book presents full-page photographs of a range of her works, from early to recent, and from grand public commissions to small intimate items. A feast for the eyes!
